I was riding last night and I slid off the trail. I did not hit anything and the sled did not tip over thank god but something weird happened. I go to hit the gas and shuts off. I tried starting it a couple more times and as soon as I hit the throttle it dies.

My friend suggested to try tipping on its right side and starting it. What do you know it ran and did not die.

I got it back to the house in one piece no issues. But now I'm running into the same thing again after I shut it off.

It will idle but shut off when throttled.

Anyone know what's going on? Please help!
 
Something to check for this concern would be your throttle free-play adjustment. Mine would do this once in awhile and I adjusted the throttle lever free-play and she's been good since ;)!
If the free-play adjustment is off, then the TORS system doesn't work correctly.

Thanks I just checked the throttle adjustment. You where correct the throttle cable was to tight and my handle bar bad was wraped around the cable. Thanks for your help much appreciated. :sled1:
